We booked a ticket with Viator for an english tour in Sunday. We got there by 10:00 am, 15 mins before the tour, waited for almost 20 minutes and the guide didn't show up. We contacted viator that shockingly told us there is no tour happening that day (and they refunded us). We were really disappointed!

Sian_s

The guide was a sweet young girl but she was uninspiring and not that easy to understand. She actually said it was her first tour. My husband and I were bored and left half way through. As did some other people. We enjoyed looking at the gardens on our own.

Liliane_S

Everything was fine, I got the support I needed by email and by WhatsApp also. I could recommend this service.

The tour provider (Entreculturas) deliberately cancelled the tour on the morning it was to occur, thereby avoiding the 24 hour cancellation and refund window. The cancellation was received in the morning before the 10.00am tour, so no alternative could be arranged. A refund has been requested multiple times, and the messages have been read. No response has been forthcoming. This is clearly designed to rip people off

Maria was an excellent tour guide. Very knowledgeable about the Alcazar and she pointed out unique discoveries in the mosaics on the walls. Amazing about the first picture with perspective

Maxine_B

Viator cancelled our trip Because they said there was a strike at the ticketing window The concierge knew nothing about It He purchased new tickets for us

Arlene_W

Very knowledgeable guide on our trip to Alcazar. The only thing was we had booked for 11.30am on your website and it was changed to 10.30 am. In the end though it worked out fine for us so wasn’t a problem. I think though you should specify the correct time of the trip as some people might be on a tight time schedule. Otherwise we both thoroughly enjoyed it. 😃

We made sure to book an English tour when we arrived the guide gave half the tour in English and half in Spanish. We felt that we got less than we paid for.

The guide did not arrive. I am seeking a refund. There was no advance notice nor an apology for the no show. This is unacceptable
